New Vauxhall Mokka now available as an electric vehicle

The second-generation version of the Vauxhall Mokka small SUV is now available as an electric vehicle with a range of up to 201 miles (WLTP).

It can be charged through a wall box, high-speed charging, or cable solution for the household socket. A 100 kW DC fast-charging system allows the car to be charged to 80% in 30 minutes.

It is also covered by an eight-year warranty for the battery.

The electric motor delivers 100 kW (136 hp) and 260 Newton metres of maximum torque.

Drivers can choose between three drive modes – Normal, Eco and Sport. The top speed is electronically limited to 93mph to preserve the energy stored in the 50 kWh battery and the range.

The electric Mokka will be on sale from late summer 2020 and available in retailers from early 2021.

The Mokka will also be offered with efficient diesel and petrol engines.

“New Mokka encompasses everything that Vauxhall will define in the future. Fully electric from launch and packed with innovative technologies bringing the best of automotive mobility to all. Vauxhall may be Britain’s oldest car manufacturer but with New Mokka it is defining itself to lead in an exciting and innovative future,” said Stephen Norman, Managing Director, Vauxhall Motors.
